[. . . ] Please note, however, that strike data is not typically updated on the Map Page while the panning cursor is on. Therefore, when the panned map is first displayed, the data is only a "snapshot" of conditions (as mentioned above, the strike rate will reflect viewable data only).
Changing the Storm Data Display Range
Storm data can be displayed on the 2000 nm zoom scale, but the data only goes out as far as the STORMSCOPE can report (200 nm). Scales greater than 500 nm do not display any further STORMSCOPE data.
To select a storm data display range:
1. From the default Nav Page, turn the small right knob to select the Map Page. Turn the large right knob to select the desired lightning symbol option. Turn the small right knob to select the desired range and press ENT.

SKYWATCH Description
Please, refer to the SKYWATCH Pilot's Guide for a complete description of the SKYWATCH system.
Power-up Self-Test
Check for the following test criteria on the Traffic Page during power-up:
1. If the SKYWATCH passes the power-up test and your aircraft both has a squat switch and is on the ground, the Standby Screen is displayed (see sidebar). If the SKYWATCH passes the power-up test and your aircraft both has a squat switch and is airborne, the Traffic Page is displayed on the 6-nm display range and in the normal altitude display mode. If the SKYWATCH passes the power-up test and your aircraft does not have a squat switch, the Standby Screen is displayed. If the SKYWATCH continues to fail, please refer to the failure response section in the SKYWATCH Pilot's Guide on actions to take.
